Local Fianna Fail councillor demands "dictator" Micheal Martin resign

Micheal Martin is a "dictator" and he should step down after Jim Gavin's disastrous presidential election campaign.

That's according to Loughrea Fianna Fail Councillor Michael Regan - who says party headquarters should follow as well.

He says Jim Gavin was never the popular choice, and many other highly qualified candidates who have given years of service were ignored.

Speaking to Galway Talks, Councillor Regan said Micheal Martin has to go.

He agreed with Councillor Regan that a review of the whole campaign is needed - but didn't support the call for Micheal Martin to step down.
